A Birmingham man has told how he has fathered TEN babies by nine different women – after advertising his sperm donor services through Facebook.

Kenzie Kilpatrick, 26, says he has tried to help no fewer than 50 childless women to fulfil their dreams of becoming mums for free, claiming just travel and hotel “expenses” from some of those living outside his home city.

Six of them are said to have given birth in the last ten weeks, welcoming two girls and five boys – including a set of twins – into the world.

Three others are due to have their children within the next month.

Kenzie, from Yardley, says he “stumbled across” the idea of becoming a sperm donor after discovering sites about the subject on the internet.

One of the couples who contacted him had spent £30,000 on failed IVF treatment, which was an added incentive, he said.

“To know I’ve helped people who have suffered for so long, desperately wanting to have a baby, has been my biggest motivator,” the former carer tells the Sunday Mercury.

“I also feel incredible knowing that I will have ten babies out there continuing my genes.

“But I don’t feel like I need to know the babies or stay in touch with their families – I just provided the sperm. I’m not attached to them.

“It’s not the same when you’re a man as it is when you’re a woman and you carry a baby for nine months. Surrogate mums face very different emotions to what I feel.”

Openly gay Kenzie set up his own private Facebook group, Drama Free UK Sperm Donors, last June. It now boasts more than 200 members.

After being contacted by women, he arranges to meet them at their homes or in hotel rooms. He then produces a sperm sample that the couples can artificially inseminate in private, using a syringe.

Kenzie will not reveal how much he has received in “expenses”, but insists any monies he received have covered just travel and hotel expenses, as well as loss of earnings.

He claims that six of the women, who live across the UK, have given birth in the last two months with the latest – a boy – born just last week. Another three expectant mums are due to give birth within the next four weeks, bringing his baby tally to ten.

Eight of the women are in lesbian relationships, while one heterosexual couple had been trying to conceive for 13 years and had endured several unsuccessful rounds of failed IVF treatment, costing more than £30,000.

Kenzie, who stresses that he has been tested for sexually transmitted diseases, says: “It’s not about the money. I have helped people to make a family, something they have truly longed for. You can’t beat the feeling that gives you.

“It seems that I am incredibly fertile,” he boasts. “And as a man that does give me a sense of pride.”

But he admits the whole process has not been without complications.

“There was one woman who conceived but then suddenly changed her mind and said she wanted an abortion,” he says.

“I was devastated. I even offered to look after the baby myself if she felt that strongly.

“However, in the end she suffered a miscarriage.”

He says he now plans to end his days as a sperm donor.

“I am desperate for a child of my own and I have found a lesbian couple who want to co-parent with me,” he explains.

He has, however, promised he will provide more sperm donations to the women he has already helped to conceive – so they can have siblings with the same DNA.

SPERM DONORS: HOW THE LAW WORKS

The National Gamete Donation Trust charity recommends that anyone seeking a donor should find one who has donated through a regulated Human Fertilization & Embryology Authority-licensed clinic.

“However, it is still legal to use donors through private agreements rather than licensed clinics,” she adds. “There is no way to regulate intercourse or DIY procedures.”

She says if sperm is donated via an HFEA-licensed clinic, the donor will have no legal responsibility for any child conceived using that sperm.

However, a private donor such as Kenzie, who has not donated through a licensed clinic, would be considered in the eyes of the law as the legal father of the donor-conceived child.

In terms of being paid for sperm donations, the HFEA says: “Egg, embryo or sperm donations are altruistic acts.

“However since April 2006, donors may claim expenses incurred in connection with the donation process and compensation for earnings lo
